Day 5 Rain, Snow, wrong slots and car ramps.

Did not have time to post last night we were busy working on the Vesty car after their coming together the day before with an Italian round about. Had much difficult try to straighten the sump guard. we found a work shop near the hotel and ended up using there car ramp to try and straighten it. This has the result of breaking the ramp with our car stuck on it up in the air. In trying to help fix the ramp I fell of a ladder!!.

Any back to the rallying. Not a great day on my park a small wrong turn on the first section cost us 20 sec. Then the second section a much bigger wrong turn cost us over 2 minutes. The only plus we were not the only ones. We still hold the lead although the gap to second has shrunk.

We used Rupert's (Postie) question card yesterday.
1. Yes in the long run it will be.
2. Yes they should but only people who live in non mobile homes and pay taxes car do it.
3. You are sexual deviant.

Long day to 6 timed sections.

  1. Hi Matt and Owen

    Don't worry Matt, Owen is well used to wrong slots!

    Glad you're both doing well and looks like you are having a cracking time. Keep up the good work.

    Loads of people have phoned or emailed us at TMS and me at home saying they are following you and are getting well into the rally. You are now famous as well as you are in the Herts Ad.

    Keep the blog going as it is great to guess how many spolling mistakes there will be!

    Take care

    Watch your step, keep the big picture in mind, look after yourself first. And what are these 'Question cards'?
